West Lothian star Susan Boyle reunites with Peter Kay 12 years after iconic collab

West Lothian singer Susan Boyle has reunited with comedian Peter Kay, 12 years after their iconic collaboration for Comic Relief.

Peter Kay has been touring around the UK with sell-out gigs and brought his jokes to Scotland on Saturday (May 6). The 62-year-old BGT icon met up with the comedian after his performance at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow on Saturday night.

The pair met backstage and Susan shared a snap of them together while remembering their Comic Relief collab where they sang a spoof cover of 'I know him so Well'.

As the Daily Record reports, Susan and Peter were pictured with their arms over each other as they smiled at the camera. Peter was smartly dressed in a black blazer and a light blue shirt as Susan wore a lovely jacket and silver top, with pink painted nails and a heart necklace.

Posting on social media, Susan said: "A reunion 12 years in the making! Susan Boyle & Peter Kay back together again after she went to see his hilariously brilliant show “Peter Kay Live” in Glasgow. How has it been 12 years since their Comic Relief video came out?!"

Susan and Peter, as alter ego Geraldine McQueen, teamed up 12 years ago to sing ‘I Know Him So Well‘ during a surprise performance on the Red Nose Day extravaganza on BBC1. The pair hilariously spoofed the original video of the song, which was written by Tim Rice along with Abba's Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaes.

The duo sang the lyrics and while Peter's Geraldine gave quirky looks to the camera, Susan's curly wig grew bigger and bigger throughout the performance.

In recent years, Susan has appeared on BBC soap River City, first making a cameo in 2021 and more recently a special performance of ABBA’s ‘Thank You For The Music’ to mark the shows anniversary.
